Another Oklahoma Bombing?
There are stories floating around the blogosphere that a bomb was exploded at the Oklahoma Sooners vs Kansas State game last night.
Flopping Aces has a good compendium of accounts from those nearby to the event. HT: Michelle Malkin.
Little Green Footballs mentioned this story earlier as well. Have you heard anything about it via the MSM?
While reports are early and sketchy this is what I take as reliable. One person was killed in the bombing and other bombs were found nearby. There is of course other bits and pieces but those I do not regard as reliable enough to report. Authorities are not characterizing it as a terrorist attack but a solo suicide.
If it is true that multiple bombs were found, then the "solo suicide" story does not fit. I do place a fair amount of credence in the story as the AP reports
I don't buy the bit about it being an attempt at solo-suicide, one bomb was enough and there were multiple bombs involved. Go to the Flopping Aces story and read all the bits. Quite a few of the bits are early reports generated by a nighttime event. General Patton while not disregarding such reports entirely treated them with sketpicism until confirmed by more accurate reports later on. The problem is I have a feeling this story is going to be hidden from public view as much as possible.

Update:
10/2/2005 9:14pm CDT. Solo suicide does appear to be the situation in Oklahoma. All sources are retracting & correcting the reports of a second controlled demolition. The victim is identified and I will not give him the publicity it seems he was hoping this would give him. I am glad I did not repeat all of the stories from Flopping Ace.
Before I finish this update just remember Bali was bombed again.

A police bomb squad detonated explosives found at the site of the blast. The area near the stadium was searched by bomb-sniffing dogs.
